~*~Softball is the sport of life..........cuz cheerleaders don't have enough brain power to play a sport so they just yell, basketballers all they know how to do is put a ball in a basket, volleyballers all they do is hit a dumb ball over a net(how easy is that), people who play soccer all they have to do is kick the ball, dancers just jump up and down, and gymnists they just hang on a bar all day, people who play field hockey just shoot the ball at people, and last but not least swimmers just move their feet up and down. Softball is life, and if you don't like it get over it.................I don't care what you say SOFTBALL ROCKS! and that is all there is to it.~*~

Swimmers don't swim because its fun. Ask any of us, most of us hate it, but we couldn't imagine our lives without it. Its part of us, something we live for. We live for the 3 hr practices, the team parties, the long bus rides, the invitationals, the countless swim caps, the jokes, the friendships, the laughs, the love, the coaches you hate but appreciate later, and the sport itself. We live for the way you become a family with your team, and no one understands what happens within that pool or locker room but you and your teammates. We live for the countless songs you sing in your head when you're swimming all those laps. We live for the people who scream at you while you're swimming even though all you hear is BLAH BLAH BLAH. We live for the competition, we live for the friends, we live for the practice, and we live for the pain. We live for the team; it's a part of us because we are swimmers

In swimming...you need...dedicationstrength, both physically and mentallyperserverecepassionthe urge to be just a little bit betterand Dont forget the most important thing, courage. Courage to swim your most dreaded stroke. Courage to sprint until you can't breath, or walk. Courage to be the best, YOUR best. GO BIG OR GO HOME! im applying all those things at swim practice, be back later!
